The Innocent's society will
continue the safety program,
which it initiated prior to
Christmas vacation, by outfit
ting all the cars on campus
with seat belts, according to
John Nolon, Innocents presi
dent. The safety program was or
iginally initiated in memory
of Steve Cass, a member of
the Innocent's society, who
was killed in a car accident.
The Innocents.with the aid
of the Junior Interfraternity
Council, will install seat belts,
at cost, on March 31, April
5, and April 11. The work
will be done at the north en
trance to the Student Union.
Beginning on Tuesday, the
Innocents will be selling tick
ets for the belts at $5. The
tickets can be purchased at
any time from any Innocent.
The Junior Chanwer ot

Kansas City Tour
ef for Vacation
By SUSIE PIERCE
Professional baseball, Cin
erama, art galleries and sup
per clubs are some of the at
tractions available to stu
dents who take the Kansas
Citv weekend trip being
planned by the Union Trips
and Tours Committee.
The Kansas City trip is
planned during Easter Vaca
tion, April 19, zu ana zi. mu
dents will fly to Kansas City
on Frontier Airlines, stay at
the Continental Hotel and
have the entire time free to
themselves.
The cost of the trip is $32.50
iiich includes lodging,
o a n d-trip transportation,
taxi fees, insurance and a
guided tour of Kansas City.
Meals and entertainment cost
have been excluded because
of varying interests and
tastes.
The croup will leave Lin
coln at 10:15 a.m. on Friday,
April 19 and return at 5 n m.
on Sunday, April 21. Students
may board any Frontier
plane in the state and fly
from that area to Lincoln at
a reduced rate in order to be
in Lincoln on April 19. '
The trip Is planned In con
belt chosen by the student
will then be installed. There
will be four stands where the
cars will be outfitted.
Each of the stands can
handle one car every ten min
utes, so there should be little
waiting, according to Nolon.
Some of the hazards in
volved in traffic accidents are
capable of being remedied.
Ditches, posts, trees and traf
fic signs are among these.
But the most important fac
tor in traffic accidents, the
driver himself, can not
change; he can only be fur
ther safeguarded.
The most effective way to
do this seems to be with the
inclusion, in automobiles, of
safety belts, Nolon said.
Major car manufacturers in
this country are beginning to
realize this fact, and at least
one includes them as stand
ard equipment in all its new
cars. ,
The Nebraska Accident and
Records Bureau reports that
proper use of seat belts
would probably reduce the fa
tality rate by 50 per cent.
The Legislature is currently
considering a bill which
would make it mandatory
junction with Frontier's state
college tours. Omaha Univer
sity and Creighton University
students will also be flying to
Kansas Citv at this time.
Several attractions offered
include: Kansas City-Los An
geles professional baseball
game; Cinerama, "How the
West Was Won;" Ice Ca
pades; Science Fair; Univer
sity Theatre, "The Devil and
Daniel Webster."
Other areas of interest are
the -Nelson Art Gallery, Peo-ple-To-People
Headquarters,
the Art Institute, KU Medi
cal Center and the Truman
Library. Tentative plans have
been made for a meeting with
former President Truman,
depending upon his recovery
from a recent illness.
"Students will be com
pletely on their own for sight
seeing and entertainment,"
explained Lee Marshall,
Chairman of the trips com
mittee. "There is an unlim
ited number of events and
places to visit."
All Interested students
should sign up in the Union
Program Office. A $16.00
down payment must be paid
to insure the reservation.
USD HOC
gets
that seat belts be present in
all new cars.
The Innocents hope that
their program will instill in
all of the students, especially
those who will travel home
over vacation, an attitude to
ward safety and also will
give them every possible
chance for returning to
school uninjured after Easter
vacation.

'Jingles' Are
Not Substitute
For Program
Dr. Perry Sandell, director
of the Bureau ofDental
Health, American Dental As
sociation, says that jingles,
songs, rhymes and slogans
are poor substitutes for a
good school dental health pro
gram, yet they still persist in
some institutions.
Sandell spoke to the Ne
braska dentists and educators
at the University today.
At the annual workshop on
dental health, he said, "the
real question that must be
asked is how well our dental
societies are fitting into
school dental health pro
grams." If the hometown dentist can
assist the teacher by provid
ing the cqrrect information
and teaching aids, then the
teacher can develop in the
pupil attitudes, habits and un
derstanding that will aid the
child in assuming responsi
bility for personal dental
health.
The two-day dental health
workshop, with the theme,
"Nebraska Schools and Den
tal Health," ends Saturday at
the Nebraska Center.

Scientists Predict
Storm Conditions
Dust storm conditions on
the Great Plains can now be
predicted with about 85 per
cent accuracy, seven months
in advance of the calendar
year in which the storms will
occur, reports the UJS. De
partment of Agriculture.
Using a wind-erosion cli
matic index, developed by
USDA's Agricultural Re
search Service (ARS) in co
operation with the Kansas
Agricultural Experiment Sta
tion, scientists can forecast in
May the number of dust
storms that are likely to oc
cur in a 12-month period be
ginning the following Janu
ary. Accurate estimates of the
number of dust storms in the
season ahead would help
Great Plains farmers to de
cide whether special protect
ive measures are needed.
These measures, such as
maintaining vegetativ
ground cover and establish
ing crop barrier strips or
ridges to reduce wind veloc
ity at the soil surface, would
be in addition to practices
recommended every year in
semiarid areas, according to
University agronomists.
The new index is based on
weather conditions that cause
erosion and dust storms on
the Great Plains and is ex
pressed as a mathematical
formula.
